Most likely been chopped by now. Bring back hanging, they used to hang folk for horse theft so why not now. after all we refer to our bikes as our trusty steed.
I sold a zx6r 2001 a few years ago to a polish guy for £1800 and he said in Poland the same bike would cost him £3000 so he was taking it back to Poland with him. No surprise all these bikes end up in Eastern European countries if that's true about the prices. Somebody's making £1000 profit per bike to take a van load over.
I agree with you completely about security FZSteely. . My brother bought a crosser few years ago, nearly brand new .. 2 days later it was nicked out shed.My dad upped the security on his garage pretty soon after as it stores a few bikes. Big steel gate inside garage, all alarmed and that ..I know if my bikes there its safe as anything ... well safer than most. My misis moans cos I store my bike there and not at home and it's a 15mins drive. Got a few jobs to make it more secure at home before I move my bike! :/
Just one point from meThe more awkward or difficult or inconvenient it is for you as the owner to take your bike out for a spin = the more awkward or difficult or inconvenient it is for the .When designing your bike storage dont be tempted to make it easy on yourself ie right out front facing the road with loads of manouvering space, have it out the back, needing a ramp and a 3 point turn & a tight squeeze and poor lighting.
